Tips and Advice on Switzerland from Your Fellow New Zealand Expats
Obviously, expat life in Switzerland goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow New Zealanders is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Swiss mentality and way of life. New Zealanders in Switzerland are a part of our community, calling cities such as Geneva, Bern, Zurich, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow New Zealanders in Zurich, for example.

At the first InterNations event that I attended, I met my wonderful partner. We now live together in a flat next to the Limmat.
